abstract = {In this study, we evaluate the functionals of different
embedded-atom methods (EAM) by fitting their free parameters
to ab-initio results for copper. Our emphasis lies on
testing the transferability of the potentials between
systems which vary in their spatial dimension and geometry.
The model structures encompass zero-dimensional clusters,
one-dimensional chains, two-dimensional tilings, and
three-dimensional bulk systems. To avoid having to mimic
charge transfer, which is outside the scope of conventional
EAM potentials, we focus on structures, in which all atoms
are symmetrically equivalent. We find that the simple,
four-parameter Gupta EAM potential is overall satisfactory.
Adding complexity to it decreases the errors on our set of
structures only by marginal amounts, unless EAM is modified
to depend also on density gradients, higher-order
derivatives, or related terms. All tested conventional EAM
functions reveal similar problems: the binding energy of
closed-packed systems is overestimated in comparison to open
or planar geometries, and structures with small coordination
tend to be too rigid. These deficiencies can be fixed in
terms of a systematically modified embedded-atom method
(SMEAM), which reproduces DFT results on bond lengths,
binding energies, and stiffnesses or bulk moduli by
typically $O(1\%),$ $O(5\%),$ and $O(15\%)$ accuracy,
respectively. SMEAM also predicts the radial distribution
function of liquid copper quite accurately. Yet, it does not
overcome the difficulty to reproduce the elastic tensor
elements of a hypothetical diamond lattice.},
